Excerpt
1 Here I am, limited and wrapped by my own hair. Skillfully trained to be invisible and necessary as air. Here I am, master of painfully losing art. Willingly posing my chest to your daily dart. Here I am, forty years young, A woman, seven steps beyond. Too shy to shine and burning brine I have learned to wear only in my eye the diamond. Mines, under my fit. Rockets, on top of my roof… Ooofff … I am sorry, am I talking too much The staff you dont want to hear as such? Dicta, dictor, dictatorship is a still high iron wall between our friendship Should I wait till it also collapses Or we should keep massaging overlaps… …But I promise, one day If North wind will not delay I hope to dare to say, That only word I was hiding Behind my tongue Since I was utterly young. and I will end growing in, and I will start growing wild. Here I am, too tamed, And times are up to shout That only word I was hiding behind my tongue Since I was simply strong. Here I am, storm in a cattle Coffee in a cup each morning for you. Not so hot, not so cold As golden green tea Each evening for you. Here I am, in the frame Of broken tranquility of yours eternally guilty. 21 sept 2015 3 Central Asia Pregnant mountain, Stillbirths, dried rivers, drained Lake.
